[The feed begins with a rather unusual shot. Namely, the tail end of a very black Charizard... squeezing herself underneath a bed. Or rather, trying and failing miserably.

There's an exasperated sigh as the camera turns to Riku.]

Anyone got tips for dealing with a Pokémon that has serious self-esteem issues? Cinder's always been timid, but ever since she's evolved, she's been trying to bury herself under my bed. And no amount of talking to her's convinced her to get out.

Grooogh... Grrarrghhhh!

[That'd be said Charizard, squirming, tail thumping against the floor. No, she doesn't wanna come out! Now she looks even less like Flare than before, and that's bad!

Riku promptly slaps his palm over his face. There's some chuckling from off camera soon after.]

I cood try and find Frrrr... Fyyy... Sigh, Farare, I suppose. We did have urgent business, anyway.

Yeah. I was getting there.

[Turning the camera away from the bed, the cameramon follows Riku closer to the doorway.]

So, while I wait for Flare to get his butt over here, there's something else I need to talk about. Well, me and my team. See, the other day, they up and decided that they want to be responsible parents. So, if you've ever bought an egg from me, could you at least tell me how the Pokémon are doing? If you can bring them on camera, even better.

After one of Flare's eggs hatched small, I just want to check in. Not just because of health, either; I'd love to hear how they're doing, period.

[And with that, he ends the feed. Time to try dragging out a seven-foot dragon before she breaks his bed... Sigh.]

I got an Aerodactyl from you a while back.

[Who is currently taking a nap in the background of the video, having made a nest of pillows and blankets on top of the hotel bed; there's also a Vaporeon curled up on his back]

He was convinced he was a different species for a little while after he hatched, but he hasn't given me much trouble since then.

Wait, you mean one of Terror's offspring isn't trying to gut everything that moves, tear your limbs off, and wrecking the place?

[Pardon his wide-eyed expression here.]

[Raising an eyebrow, here.]

I guess not, were you expecting it to when you sold me the egg?

Juliet, [he gestures behind him, presumably at the Vaporeon; she raises her head when she hears her name, anyway.] decided she was his mother when he hatched. He doesn't get away with much when she's around.

[Key words: when she's around. And Envy doesn't count causing trouble for other people to be causing trouble for him.]

Not necessarily. Most trainers with Aerodactyls seem to have gotten off lucky.

It's just hard to believe, since Terror's a monster, to put it lightly. Can't even understand words.

[SIGH, just his luck.]

Still, at least you lucked out. Wouldn't wish a psychopathic, murderous reptile on anyone.
